INGREDIENT
Chicory Root
The root of the chicory plant, the usual commercial source of inulin.
Why it turns up in dog food
- A well-established prebiotic: its inulin feeds beneficial gut bacteria, which supports digestion and stool quality.
An ingredient on its own tells you very little.
What matters is how much of it there is and where it sits in the list. That is why we weigh
the top five rather than reacting to any single name further down.
